Greetings all you Heathens! Today’s Talk Heathen is brought to you by, keep wearing masks and wash your damned hands. We are hosted today by Eric Murphy and Vi La Bianca, or as I like to call them, the dynamic duo.

Let’s get to calls. The first caller is Nindo from New York. He would like to discuss the possibility of a designer god. Sorry Eric, not a designer like Chanel or Louis Vuitton. But this call has all the fallacies: Appeals from authority, fine tuning, and solipsism oh my!
Next up, Joe from New York would like to talk about how he had been treated poorly by the atheist community online either in the comments for the shows (ooooof!) or by other internet show hosts. The call evolves into him asking about free will and also turns to the ‘no true Scotsman’ fallacy.

Father John from Canada is up next, he is an Eastern Orthodox Catholic and is calling in without a topic. Eric is excited and has a lot of questions about it. Starting with communal spoons in the time of COVID. “The transmission of COVID cannot happen in church…” Yikes, Father John affirmed that it can’t through the taking of communion and says it is against the faith to test the veracity of this claim.

The next caller in the queue is Caleb from Pennsylvania wanting to discuss what a good and healthy faith community looks like to atheists. As long as you don’t infringe upon others’ rights and are motivated by positive and not requiring folks to be manipulated into getting help or have prerequisite or conditional entry.

Thanks for tuning in and thank you to our essential workers, we are here for you. Please be safe and healthy out there, we as a community are better because you are in it. See you all next week.
